Sturgill Simpson Turns the End Times Into a Groove-Soaked Dance Party
Sturgill Simpson’s Johnny Blue Skies & The Dark Clouds fuse country, rock, funk and disco on Mutiny After Midnight, a nine-track groove-driven response to the end times that pairs political bite (tracks like Make America Fuk Again and Excited Delirium) with unapologetic sexuality and tender moments such as Don't Let Go. Described by the reviewer as an 'apocalyptic dance party,' the album showcases bold energy, strong band chemistry, and Simpson’s signature swagger, a polarizing but riveting pivot in his catalog. Out physically 3/13 via Atlantic Outpost.
